I started talking to a person online, and we quickly became friends. Met irl several months later and everything seemed great that we started making plans for the next hang out. Then we both had difficult situations in life but supported each other through those. However, in recent months we started talking less to each other. I got a gf, started working more, etc. I tried to get back to that friend as much as possible but dude just seems cold, doesn't share anything and replies with two or three words to all of my messages. I tried asking what's wrong but was met with the same bs response.Anyway, I really considered that person to be my friend but now I feel like I am losing possibly one of the best connections in life.What should I do?
I think you should tell your friend about your concerns. The worst that could happen is that he'll continue to be distant with you, and then you have your answer as to where you stand with him.I suspect, though, that addressing the elephant in the room and just making it crystal clear to him that you want to be his friend will help pull him out of whatever he's been sucked into lately.
>>34581222I tried that a while ago but he said that everything is fine, he is just "busy" with his degree and we're still "cool". But I never receive a message or a call unless I write first. I will try that again maybe, so thank you for the suggestion. I guess that's more of a question whether I should just move on with life or keep trying.
